Enable ext4 support for per-file/directory dax operations

2020-06-11T14:51:44Z

This adds the same per-file/per-directory DAX support for ext4 as was done for xfs, now that we finally have consensus over what the interface should be.

ext4: fix buffer_head refcnt leak when ext4_iget() fails

2020-06-04T03:16:49Z

ext4_orphan_get() invokes ext4_read_inode_bitmap(), which returns a reference of the specified buffer_head object to "bitmap_bh" with increased refcnt. When ext4_orphan_get() returns, local variable "bitmap_bh" becomes invalid, so the refcount should be decreased to keep refcount balanced. The reference counting issue happens in one exception handling path of ext4_orphan_get(). When ext4_iget() fails, the function forgets to decrease the refcnt increased by ext4_read_inode_bitmap(), causing a refcnt leak. Fix this issue by calling brelse() when ext4_iget() fails.

fs/ext4: Only change S_DAX on inode load

2020-05-29T02:09:47Z

To prevent complications with in memory inodes we only set S_DAX on inode load. FS_XFLAG_DAX can be changed at any time and S_DAX will change after inode eviction and reload. Add init bool to ext4_set_inode_flags() to indicate if the inode is being newly initialized. Assert that S_DAX is not set on an inode which is just being loaded.

ext4: increase wait time needed before reuse of deleted inode numbers

2020-04-16T03:58:49Z

Current wait times have proven to be too short to protect against inode reuses that lead to metadata inconsistencies. Now that we will retry the inode allocation if we can't find any recently deleted inodes, it's a lot safer to increase the recently deleted time from 5 seconds to a minute.

ext4: fix return-value types in several function comments

2020-04-16T03:58:48Z

The documentation comments for ext4_read_block_bitmap_nowait and ext4_read_inode_bitmap describe them as returning NULL on error, but they return an ERR_PTR on error; update the documentation to match. The documentation comment for ext4_wait_block_bitmap describes it as returning 1 on error, but it returns -errno on error; update the documentation to match.

ext4: save all error info in save_error_info() and drop ext4_set_errno()

2020-04-01T21:29:06Z

Using a separate function, ext4_set_errno() to set the errno is problematic because it doesn't do the right thing once s_last_error_errorcode is non-zero. It's also less racy to set all of the error information all at once. (Also, as a bonus, it shrinks code size slightly.)

ext4: avoid ENOSPC when avoiding to reuse recently deleted inodes

2020-03-26T14:55:00Z

When ext4 is running on a filesystem without a journal, it tries not to reuse recently deleted inodes to provide better chances for filesystem recovery in case of crash. However this logic forbids reuse of freed inodes for up to 5 minutes and especially for filesystems with smaller number of inodes can lead to ENOSPC errors returned when allocating new inodes. Fix the problem by allowing to reuse recently deleted inode if there's no other inode free in the scanned range.
